Dybala, does he actually score goals? Morata or Aubamayeng or whatever safer bets, imo

Erm, Dybala has scored 23 goals this season for Juve and Morata has 12.

Morata is decent, Dybala is a STAR.

Vardy signing for Arsenal makes one remember when they bought Frances (Francis?) Jeffers from Everton - fox in the box my arse - anyway agreed Vardy looks hopeless at international level so fingers crossed that's another £20m pissed up the wall by Wenger.

dont think any of the Foxies' jewels will move. also by the fact that they seem to have hit a kind of "smart environment" and, as You rightly argue, might put the remainder of career in danger, moving elsewhere. nevertheless at Arse.

1. "unintelligible language"
2. "ACID QUEEN"
3. "never once fails to turn a football thread into a himseelf thread"
4. "thumbs stalker often resulting in repetitive thumb strain"
5. ignore the cunt. he's on permantent wum mission. only TIDs may know City

You'd need to make a very good psychiatrist in order to guess what next in a eight yrs long line of hatred...

there must be some truth, then!

The problem is that Vardy has a release clause if a Champions League club puts a bid in (I presume Vardy's agent has been a little open with that info), could imagine everyone pissing themselves laughing when they stuck that clause in! What would worry me if I was a Leicester fan is whether if Vardy left would the others follow citing lack of ambition from the club - I'm sure there's nothing stopping Leicester putting a counter offer to Vardy to improve his wages & persuade him to stop. Maybe they could emulate our record of winning the top league & then relegated the next.

Would imagine Shrek and Zlatan falling out first. Shrek likes to be top dog and he won't like Zlatan rocking up on the money he will be on taking centre stage

I love Zlatan to the rags. He will get found out and cause plenty of ructions in the dressing room. But do the odd magical thing to stick around.

Zlatan scores everywhere he goes. His worst g/g ratio was for Malmo, where he was just under a 1 in 2 striker. Scoring in the Ukraine and Italy before failing in the UK is hardly the same level of pedigree.

Would you put Zlatan above Shevchenko? I wouldn't.

Clever player, coasted in France, but he has no legs, will have a short term impact for a time, a fall out with Jose/Rooney/Pep is nailed on. All end in a Tevez style fall out.

Yep. Glad he's going there rather than to us.
